Is durango an easy target? - 12/27/2007 10:25:43 AM    tbelian   Posts: 1 Joined: 12/27/2007 Status: offline Can anyone comment on whether or not they have read anything, or had first hand experience with the durango being an 'easy target' for theft? Within a week, our Durango has been entered and ransacked in the driveway at home 2 times.  Fortunately, nothing of any real value was in it, but, obviously someone was looking for whatever they could grab and run with.  Center console contents gone through and strewn about, also glove box open, contents dumped. We are pretty methodical about locking the car.  I'm just wondering if this vehicle has an easy entry method?  I don't necessarily want to know what the easy entry method is, just whether or not there is anything I can do about it, or if others have had a similar experience. Thanks Post #: 1

They often get locked accidentally. Our load supervisors can get into them all very quickly......I'm talking literally 5 seconds max to insert the slim jim, unlock and open door. And it doesn't matter how cheap/expensive the car is... (in reply to durangeddurango) Post #: 4
